Global Threats and Concern: a Posthuman Place
Global Threats and Concern: a Posthuman Place

Summary/Abstract: Threat convergence within the Anthropocene concept represents a source of technical extinction, a “way of being” exalting human inadequacy with the environment. Assuming it emerges as a dialectical revolt between technic and Nature, it could ultimately limit human experience by redefining the awareness of concerns. We hereby analyse how threats and concerns interact, and focus on the inadequacy of human and non-human preservation efforts in dealing with strangeness, the ulterior translocation of configuration of human experience, its place. Our analysis found that the most significant contingency is not the specific extinction but the impossibility of coping with placelessness, standing as another present beyond our current being in the world and towards a different human actuality of imponderable adequacy.
